Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Khaldoon Khalifa Al Mubarak, said: “2017 was a landmark year for our new organization. All four global platforms contributed to our strong financial and operational results. The scale of our integrated portfolio enabled us to increase investments in existing companies and monetize mature assets, while entering new sectors in key international markets where we see long-term growth potential and alignment with Abu Dhabi’s strategic priorities.”

Financial highlights for the full-year period ending 31st December 2017*, include:

Revenue was AED 165.6 billion compared to AED 145.4 billion in 2016, driven by the strong performance of all four global platforms, with major contributions from upstream & integrated, petrochemicals and the semiconductor business sectors.

Operating Income was AED 10.7 billion compared to AED 9.6 billion in 2016. Petrochemical and Aluminum manufacturing assets were major growth drivers.

Total Comprehensive Income was AED 10.3 billion compared to AED 5.1 billion in 2016, with gains from divestments of mature assets and the increase in value of financial holdings.

Total Assets were AED 469.4 billion at the end of 2017 compared to AED 449.7 billion at the end of 2016.

Total Equity was AED 258 billion at the end of 2017 compared to AED 228.3 billion at the end of 2016.

Chief Financial Officer, Carlos Obeid, said: “In 2017 we made significant progress by reducing overall leverage while maintaining appropriate liquidity to deploy capital in new investments. In addition, we took the opportunity to monetize some of our mature assets which provided a significant return on our original investments, in line with our mandate to deliver financial returns to our shareholder.”

Operational highlights from across Mubadala Investment Company’s four global business platforms are:

Aerospace, Renewables & ICT

Mubadala successfully completed the sale of a 40 percent stake in Tabreed, its district cooling business, to ENGIE, a global energy leader for AED 2.8 billion. Mubadala remains the largest shareholder of the Abu Dhabi based district cooling utility company.

Masdar inaugurated its third wind farm in the UK, the Dudgeon Offshore Windfarm, bringing the combined power generating capacity of all three projects to 1 gigawatt (GW) – enough clean energy to supply nearly 1 million homes. The wind farm comprises 67 wind turbines and is now supplying around 410,000 UK homes in one of the largest deployments of 6MW wind turbines, the most powerful on the market.

Strata Manufacturing completed delivery of its first set of A350-900 inboard flaps to Airbus. Airbus selected Strata to manufacture the A350-900 inboard flap in 2015. Strata-produced inboard flaps have been incorporated into A350s from January 2018 and the company expects to ramp up production of these important components in 2018 and 2019.

Mubadala continued to invest in its world-class healthcare facilities, which saw substantial growth across 2017:

Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi recorded 475,319 patient visits and performed 13,372 surgical cases. The multi-specialty hospital also achieved a major medical landmark with the country’s first full multi-organ transplant. This landmark moment for tertiary transplant medicine in the UAE, and the region, included a heart, lung, kidney and split-liver transplant.

Imperial College London Diabetes Centre (ICLDC) recorded an 18% increase in patient activity with a total of 326,684 patient visits, and the new Zayed Sports City branch reached breakeven point after only three months of operation.

Petroleum & Petrochemicals

Nova Chemicals announced the acquisition of one of the largest petrochemicals facilities in the U.S., the olefins plant in Geismar, Louisiana, for AED7.7 billion (US$2.1 billion), marking a major entry into the U.S. Gulf Coast market.

Cepsa is the world’s leading producer of Linear Alkylbenzene (LAB), the main raw material used to make biodegradable detergents, producing 600,000 tonnes annually equating to 15% of global production. ADNOC and Cepsa bring complementary strengths to the project; ADNOC resources and expertise in the feedstock area from its Ruwais refinery, and Cepsa’s LAB technology and market knowledge.

EGA produced a record 2.6 million tonnes of cast metal in 2017, exceeding 2016’s production and making EGA the third largest producer of primary aluminium outside China.
